Man of Principle

Dr. Martin Luther King served as an honest eye on the racial and discriminatory acts running through society then and now. I believe all societies need people like Dr. Martin Luther King, who would tell you how it is. He lived with the clarity of a man who understood morals and ethics and could not be swayed on his principles. A quote from Martin Luther King about our cultural categorizing of social hierarchies is still applicable today, “Reconsider your definitions. We are prone to judge success by the index of our salaries or the size of our automobiles rather than by the quality of our service and relationship to mankind”. Martin Luther King could see the distorted view we have in our social world but still is inspired and inspires other to hope and work for change.
